Hi John, it's Adelita Grijalva – the Democratic Rep.-Elect being blocked from taking office.
Enough is enough.
I have filed a federal lawsuit to break Speaker Johnson's obstruction so that I can be sworn in immediately.
This has now become the longest swearing-in delay in recent U.S. history.
We're going to court because if they can silence one district, they can try to silence us all. It's an unlawful breach of our Constitution – and an attack on the democratic process itself.
I'm fighting back with every tool available. But I can't do it alone. I need you in this fight with me.

It's been over a month since voters in Southern Arizona overwhelmingly elected me in a special election to represent them in Congress. We won by 40 points. The results have been certified. The people have spoken and they deserve representation.
This obstruction isn't just about politics. It's about a Speaker who's silencing an entire district because he doesn't like that my election threatens his razor-thin majority. It's an abuse of power that strikes at the foundation of our democracy and sets a dangerous precedent.
If that power is allowed to stand, any Speaker could override the will of the people and deny voters representation for months at a time.
This is a defining moment – not just for our district, but for our democracy. Every dollar we raise fuels this fight to hold Speaker Johnson accountable.
Thank you,
–Rep.-Elect Adelita Grijalva, Arizona's 7th District
